Help Us Help Haiti

Functional Literacy Ministry of Haiti is a Pittsburgh-based organization that has been working in Haiti since 1983. Originally focused on adult literacy, FLM-Haiti now has a school for 600 children and a community health center, both in Thomassin, about twenty miles southeast of Port-au-Prince. Until the earthquake, FLM also supported sixty adult literacy centers in and around the capital.

In the aftermath of the earthquake tragedy, FLM's goals are to use its deep knowledge of the communities of Thomassin, La Boule, Boutiliers, and Kenscoff to bring them relief as soon as possible, to extend a helping hand to refugees from the capital, and to begin the serious, long-term work of rebuilding.

• Functional Literacy Ministry of Haiti - a shelter in the storm, a place of refuge for injured, hungry, homeless people fleeing Port-au-Prince
• FLM-Haiti - on the ground, with infrastructure and staff intact--our clinic and school buildings survived the earthquake without damage
• FLM - 27 years of serving people in the communities southeast of Port-au-Prince--a knowledgeable and trusted presence
• FLM's staff in Haiti - already at work caring for the sick and injured victims of the earthquake
